Digital access goes beyond high-speed internet. When communities have access to secure networks, it’s also crucial to have reliable equipment and strong digital skills.
At Sun Corridor Network, we aim to provide a secure internet connection and foster educational opportunities for a meaningful online experience. Over the years, our work has involved promoting digital equity and helping the communities we serve gain the necessary skills to excel in the digital world.
Digital equity and fluency: keys to digital success
Digital equity and digital fluency are central to Sun Corridor Network’s mission. Digital equity refers to equitable access to the resources and capacity for fully participating in society. This could include providing affordable computer equipment, access to online resources and technical support.
In a similar vein, digital fluency ensures individuals can use technology ethically and effectively. It involves staying current with emerging technologies and new information-sharing formats. This might mean educating the community on digital skills, which empowers individuals to harness digital tools creatively and responsibly.
Supporting digital equity and fluency empowers individuals, enhances personal and professional lives and helps create a more inclusive Arizona. Sun Corridor Network’s commitment to these ideals enables more residents to access high-speed internet and the skills they need to thrive in the digital age, promoting a stronger future.
